Is land use producing robust signals in future projections from Earth system...
We use six Earth system models (ESMs) run under SSP3-7.0, a scenario characterized by a relatively large land use change (LUC) over the 21st century, and under a variant of the...- publication PDF

Effects of organized convection parameterization on the MJO and...
Mesoscale organization of convection is typically not represented in global circulation models, and hence its influence on the global circulation is not accounted for. The...- publication PDF
